About this work

A woman sits outside on a low stool, reading a book. She wears a light dress and a dark shawl draped over her shoulders. A small table holds her book and a cup. Behind her, a garden stretches out with green bushes, a tree, and a statue of a woman on a pedestal. The ground looks damp, and the sky is pale. The brushstrokes are loose, blending colors like sunlight through leaves. This style was meant to feel quick and natural, almost like a snapshot. Look up Impressionism next to see more paintings like this.
